reprimanded

This evening I went and got a pedicure (as instructed my by honey.....thanks babe! :0) and while I was there, decided to get a much needed eyebrow waxing. The lady who did my waxing, went and got all the stuff and then came to wax my eyebrows. When she got close, she started looking at my eyebrows and then started muttering under her breath in Chinese. I have no idea what she was saying, but it was NOT good.

She then started talking to me and pointing to my eyebrows. I was obviously confused, so she grabbed a mirror, and gave it to me, motioning that I was supposed to look at my eyebrows. She said, "Oh look..what you do. You pluck too much on this one. This one is pretty eyebrow, but this one no."

After looking SUPER close, I noticed what she was talking about. Evidently, I decided to pluck one small area at the beginning of my eyebrow a little too much (which in my defense I don't remember..maybe a few stray hairs, but not a whole section!). She said, "You no pluck. Come see me, but no pluck!" Hahaha..I said, "ok, I see now. I see."

So she waxed my eybrows, and finished to her liking, before telling me that, "it be ok...it will grow. No more pluck! You like?!" Hahaha..

I got reprimanded by my nail lady. I totally felt about 2 yrs old. It didn't help when all of the other nail people noticed my uneven eyebrows that the lady pointed out to EVERYONE and got these "tsk..tsk..shame on you..how dare you pluck your eyebrows" look.

Well believe me, now I know!

i wonder

when I will actually remember myself, that my new web url is www.mossmoments.blogspot.com instead of www.chelseysnodgrass.blogspot.com and actually REMEMBER this fact when I enter the address in. I'm pretty sure I've forgotten it about 85 times. Oh the cons of changing the url that you've gotten used to entering in over the past year and a half.

*SIGH*

Thanksgiving '08!

Thanksgiving day was spent in Brady at my grandparent's house. We ate lots of yummy food, and spent time walking around the dairy and petting the horses! We drove back to Lorena that night.

On Friday morning, my sister Charity and I braved the crowds and did our Black Friday shopping. It actually wasn't as bad as I expected it to be! We were out from 7:00-5:30! We definitely made a day of it and got some great bargains! Bryan drove in from Shreveport that night and then joined us as we drove to Comanche the next day.

Saturday was spent having Thanksgiving #2 with my mom's side of the family at Uncle Kinley's. We had more yummy food, I got to introduce Bryan to my mom's side of the family, and then Uncle Kinley took us around on a tour of his pecan farm. Bryan loved it! :0)

We had a great Thanksgiving holiday! Now, check out some pictures of our adventures below!

back to blogging!

Well, I must apologize for my absence from the blogging world as of lately! I'm been swamped with final projects for my fall grad class. Last week I did an activity with my class, and I literally worked all day with my kids, and then worked all afternoon/night at school. I've been working so hard because I went to Shreveport this weekend, and I wanted to get everything finished by Thursday. I just knew I wouldn't enjoy my weekend as much if I knew I had to come back and finish all this crap! So, long story short, I finished my project at school at 11:15 PM on Thursday night. Yep, I was about dead after it all but so nice to know that I was D-O-N-E! I left Friday and went to Shreveport and had a wonderful weekend! :0)

Instead of doing a REALLY long post full of updates, I've decided to make lots of little ones, so keep reading.

REMINDER: I am changing my blog url tonight, so make sure you change it as well! http://www.mossmoments.blogspot.com/

I'm still here...I promise!

I'm just trying to "keep my head above water" right now. :0) I'm swamped with my grad school final project, and of course I waited until the end to get it done. Yeah, maybe not such a bright idea.

Anyways, I promise after this weekend, I'll post, WITH pictures! ;0)

Pray for me!

big night!

Well folks, it's here! Another big playoff game will happen tonight, between Lorena and Carthage! You obviously know who my vote it for ;0) I'm so excited! Bryan is coming in, Emily and Nate are coming, lots of extended family will be there and it's just going to be a great night! Win or lose, I'm so proud of my brothers and the Lorena Leopards!

The game starts at 8:00 tonight at Mansfield Stadium. Come on out and support our boys!

I'll update later to let ya'll know the outcome!

GOOOOOOOOOOOO LEOPARDS!!!

One more whole day and night without him..I can make it through one more day..I can, I can! Then he's HERE TOMORROW! I can't wait..if you haven't got that yet! ;0)

Don't forget to change my url to http://www.mossmoments.com soon! I'll be changing it tomorrow/Saturday!

Have a great day!

Lorena answers bell with playoff victory, 24-14

Not much to say with this post, only that I'm probably the most proud sister/daughter in the whole wide world right now! :0) I'll let the pictures tell the story, but if you'd like to read more, check out the full story here at the Waco Trib.

the beauty that they won! It's been 19 years since we've taken home one of these puppies..
yep, that's my brother, #44, one of the captains strutting his stuff ;0)

a BEAST! :0)
FINAL SCORE= LEOPARD DOMINATION!!

The boys play again this Friday night at 8:00 p.m in Mansfield against Carthage. We can't WAIT!!!

I'm back!

Well, I guess I never really "went" anywhere, but I am no longer private! I've been thinking about it for a while, but couldn't make a final decision. Meredith helped by giving me that extra push by deciding also not to be private anymore! I just decided that the reasons that I went private in the first place, aren't really there anymore. Plus, honestly, I don't talk about school at all, and there's sure not anything on there that anybody could fault me for writing, so non-private we are! More than likely, all anybody is going to be reading about right now is my brother's football games, and my upcoming wedding. The most anyone is going to get my reading my blog is how much I love Bryan Moss~and I'm perfectly fine with that!

I'm actually glad to not be private anymore for the reasons listed below:

• I hated signing in.
• I hated that ya'll had to sign in.
• I hated that it didn't show ya'll when I updated.
• I hated knowing that some of you would just forget to check my blog, therefore, missing out on some good posts.
• I hated it that some of you didn't send me your e-mail so I couldn't add you to the list, and you had no way of knowing how to reach me.
• I hated signing in.
• I hated that I felt so scared about people reading what I wrote that I had to go private.
• I hated signing in.

With that said, I am very happy to now not be private anymore! I figure, if it becomes a problem again, I'll just go back to being private!

PLEASE NOTE! Although I'm very happy to not be private anymore, I will be changing my URL address. I just don't like that fact that when you enter my name into a web search, my blog is the first thing that comes up! So, please make note that this will be my new address so you can change it on your blogs.

http://www.mossmoments.com/

I figured that I was going to change it when I got married, so I'd just go ahead and change it now! I'll give ya'll a few days until I officially change it!

Well, I guess that's it for now! Now, I expect all of you to leave me lots of comments! ;0)

8 Months!

Happy 8 month anniversary baby! I can't believe that we're already here! The past eight months have flown by, and I know the next eight will too. I'm so happy to now be writing this as your fiance'. The day you asked me to be your wife was the best day of my life! I can't wait until June 27th when I will have the next best day of my life, when I become your wife! I can't wait to be Mrs. Bryan Moss! You are everything to me, and the love of my life. I respect, admire, and trust you so much! You truly are my Prince Charming! I love you more than I can ever say! Thank you for taking care of me, cherishing me, and loving me like you do. I love you Bryan Mitchell Moss!
Love,
The future Mrs. Bryan Moss :0)

Lorena knocks off La Vega, 20-13, claims playoff berth

Yep, folks, you heard it right! The Lorena Leopards are playoff bound! We are soooooooooo excited! We've been praying and working hard for this for a V-E-R-Y long time! I will admit that I'm completely biased, but I'm pretty sure that my brothers are the best out there! ;0) I'm so proud of both of them! The game is this coming Thursday, so I'll be taking off Friday, in order to go cheer on my Leopards! P.S. #44 is my brother Chase in the picture above.

In other news, Bryan and I had another amazing weekend together! We got to go out to dinner with Jacque and Jason on Friday night and catch up. I don't think we've done that much laughing in a long time! On Saturday Bryan and I got to go and babysit some of my friends kids, who are PRECIOUS! We had such a fun day! This morning we went to church, had a yummy lunch at Johnny Corino's, then spent the afternoon walking the trails at Harry Meyer's Park. This was the first time we'd been to the park and we LOVED it! It was so beautiful, and was perfect weather! Bryan left to go back tonight, so that was sad, but overall it was such a great weekend!

Some other things I've forgotten to update ya'll on are:

• this past Friday we had our first successful Kindergarten field trip to the fire station, library, and then ended with a picnic lunch at the park! It was an exhausting day, but we had fun!
• A few weeks ago, Bryan and I had our first pre-marital counseling session with the head counselor at FBC Dallas. It went really well, and we're going to continue our sessions at their church! Bryan also got to see the chapel for the first time, and fell in love with it just as much as I did! He said it was perfect and we both said there's NOTHING we'd change about anything!

This week Bryan and I will celebrate our 8 month anniversary! I honestly can't believe that it's been that long. At some times, it seems like it was just yesterday that we met, and at other times it feels like we've been married forever. I know we both wish we'd been married forever! Haha.

Well, I do believe that is about all for now. If you're still reading all of this, props to you! ;0) Adios..

where I was..

1 minute ago: finishing up my journal for class

1 day ago: spending an amazing day babysitting with Bryan :0)

1 month ago: I was about to get engaged!

5 years ago: I was in my sophomore year of college, joined my sorority Sigma Phi Lambda where I met some of my best friends, and met godly women who changed my life! I also entered into my first serious relationship, where I had my first official boyfriend.

7 years ago: I was a junior in high school~I spent most of the time with my best friend Kyrbie, having sleepovers, going to football games, and obsessing about boys. I started working at McAlister's Deli!

10 years ago: I lived in Elgin, Tx. At this time, I "thought" I was in love, with a boy named Brian. He was a big part of my life during this time. Funny that the guy that I talked about in the 5 year section, was Brian's best friend. Ironically, I'm marrying a Bryan, and he puts both of them to shame! Love you baby! My family moved to Lorena, TX that year and have been there ever since. I also entered public school for the very first time as a freshman.

I tag: Amanda, Amy, Susan, and Shaunna!

ideas anyone?

Well, I've been trying to research as much as possible and I'm needing to find some websites that you'd recommend for:

1. hairstyles
2. wedding dresses
3. bridesmaid dresses

Any ideas you have, I'd love to hear them! I loved Tyly's idea of looking at places like Target online for bridesmaid dresses. I really loved the $30 especially! I definitely want to keep them as cheap as possible. I looked at Target online and loved some of the dresses, but I couldn't find them in my color. Oh, yeah, have I mentioned what my color is? Well, it's PINK! I'm not exactly sure what else, or if anything else, but I'm probably going to do a couple of different shades of pink. I don't want it to look like pink threw up everywhere, and I'm definitely not the type of bride where EVERY, SINGLE, THING has to be pink. I just want a nice balance! :0)

Ok people, let me hear your ideas! :0) By the way, only 235 more days to go!!!!
